Chapter 190: Embers of Civilization, Reboot!
Link proudly stood in front of the ancient-feeling stone tablet. His back was tall and straight like a long spear pointed directly at the sky, appearing as if he wanted to fight against heaven and earth!
Momentarily, Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, and the others were all filled with respect for Link. They could feel this young man’s unspeakable aura.
Ou Chen put away the smile on his face and silently followed Xue Linglong, Luo Xingyao, Zhao Yongkang, and Luo Haoyue, standing behind Link.
The God Devourer Ant temporarily stayed behind as a guard. After all, there were still many prisoners here.
Just now, Zhao Yongkang had contacted Unfallen City through the communication device, so Yang Xuerou would soon send people over to receive these prisoners and deal with the remaining matters.
As long as Link needed them, he could directly summon his summoned creatures—such as God Devourer Ant and Star Moon—to his side at any time, even if they weren’t in one place.
Link took out a key that exuded a strange aura from his backpack. It was the [Key of Relic].
As soon as the key appeared, it seemed to be drawn by some inexplicable force and flew toward the dent on the stone tablet by itself.
The runes on the stone tablet lit up one after another at this moment, and streams of radiant light floated out from it, looking very extraordinary!
Rumble!
A roar that sounded like spring thunder blasted in everyone’s ears!
The [Key of Relic] filled the dent on the stone tablet perfectly, and a bright beam of light suddenly soared into the sky like a pillar that connected heaven and earth!
The dense flowing clouds in the sky were directly pierced and scattered by this winding beam of light!
The sun instantly dimmed as if a big hand was covering the sky at this moment!
Then, the energies drifting in the air turned into a variety of lights and started converging here like a school of fish. The wind was surging, and the world seemed to change color as well!
A mysterious aura spilled out from the huge beam of light as if it had come from ancient times, crossing over the long river of time—majestic and vast!
This phenomenon had a very wide range of influence and attracted the attention of countless people!
In the wilderness, a team of [Doomsday Online] players—who had just finished fighting with the Undead monsters—looked up at the sky full of shock, not even bothering to pick up the loot on the ground!
In the surrounding human home cities, countless people stopped their activities and looked toward the sky.
Some people were puzzled, some were surprised, and some muttered, “What’s happening? Is it a new space crack?”
In Unfallen City.
Yang Xuerou, Qiao Ruowei, and the others stood on the city wall. They looked toward the Forest of Darkness, staring at the huge beam of light.
“It should be that the ruin is being opened. It’s uncertain when the City Master will come back. We must prepare for battle,” Yang Xuerou said suddenly.
Qiao Ruowei nodded, coldness flashing in her beautiful eyes. The phenomenon is so extraordinary; it’s likely that many people have noticed it. Next, it is likely that many people will have designs on the ruin and Unfallen City, which had obtained it.
...
Bright Sun City, inside a tall, towering building.
Ou Mingcheng—the Temple of Light’s Lord—stood in front of the French windows with his hands behind his back, staring at the beam of light and phenomenon in the distance. “Is the ruin opened? It actually caused such a phenomenon. I wonder if Ou Chen has entered the ruin...”
An Elder behind Ou Mingcheng smiled and said, “Even though the Holy Son loves to play around, he’s still capable when handling matters. I think he will definitely gain something this time.”
...
In an Undead army town, the Undead creatures and monsters also noticed the phenomenon. They stopped their activities and cast their gazes in the direction of the Forest of Darkness.
After the siege war ended, some of the space cracks were closed. However, most of the space cracks were integrated and solidified by the powerhouses in the Undead army, becoming channels for the Undead army to enter this world.
Countless Undead creatures descended from their original world to Blue Star through the space cracks, becoming a steady source of troops for the Undead army.
Gu Ao was an abyssal existence that entered Blue Star through this channel. He had reached Stage Six and was one of the most outstanding among the younger generation of his race.
He was staring at the beam of light at this moment. His eyes faintly turned red as if he was excited, and a dense bloody aura continued to radiate from him. “Haha, is there a ruin that has been opened? The human being that the ancestor talked about should be in that direction! I hope that that human won’t let me down...”
...
Forest of Darkness.
The ancient stone tablet marking the ruin had disappeared, replaced by a huge portal made of light.
The inside of the portal was completely dark, and the streams of energy twisted like a vortex. Nobody knew where it led to.
The Epochal Ruins should exist in a certain subspace, and this should be the entrance. Link’s mind turned as he considered this, and without hesitation, he stepped straight into the ruin.
With curiosity and anxiety, Xue Linglong and the others all stepped forward and followed Link into the ruin.
When Ou Chen—who was last—entered as well, the huge light portal suddenly collapsed.
Space was like a water surface with ripples at its starting point. It eventually became completely calm as if everything that happened before was just an illusion.
Wu Hao, Tian Mingyuan, and the other Temple of Light people were stunned by this strange scene, and they were speechless for a long time.
These methods were far beyond their abilities, and they didn’t know how such a powerful civilization had been destroyed, leaving only the remains.
“Please return safely,” Tian Mingyuan said silently.
...
After a brief sense of dizziness, Link violently opened his eyes.
What appeared in his eyes was a bizarre scene.
Strangely shaped buildings stood there; some of the buildings were even floating in the air as the brilliance of magic bloomed from them.
In the sky, numerous aircraft with strong magical auras whizzed past.
Is this the interior of the Epochal Ruins? A magic-inclined civilization? Link said silently in his heart.
Suddenly, his eyes changed. When he checked himself just now, Link noticed that his extraordinary power had disappeared!
Even the items in his personal backpack couldn’t be summoned out; even the clothes on his body turned into a gray robe.
Link frowned slightly.
And right at this moment, a sweet soft voice suddenly sounded in his heart. “Link, what’s wrong? Are you feeling any discomfort in your body?”
This voice didn’t belong to any language Link knew, but he could clearly understand what it meant.
Accompanied by the sound of words, a white and tender palm waved in front of Link.
Link didn’t hesitate. He turned around, quickly stretched out his palm, strangled that person’s throat, and pressed her to the ground.
This set of movements flowed smoothly like it was just as natural as breathing.
The few people beside Link were all dumbfounded at this moment as well! They obviously didn’t expect Link to make such a move so decisively!
The one restrained by Link was a sweet-looking girl. Her face was full of surprise at this time, and her fair face was even blushing a little.
A woman? Link’s eyes looked slightly taken aback. However, he didn’t let go. Woman or not, it didn’t affect the speed of his sword.
In a strange environment where there were unknown dangers, Link always liked to be in control first.
“Were you the one talking to me just now?” Link asked. Then, he suddenly realized that his words had become an unknown language too.
